the last time anyone came back from a four-point deficit was in 1999 and that was on home soil. and that was a stunning final day then. but for the europeans to come over to the american soil and to achieve this victory, it's truly historic. it was not expected at all. the americans looked like they were going to be racing favorites and certainties on the final day. all they needed from a possible 12 points was 4 1/2. they only managed 3 1/2. so it was left to the europeans to lead from the front, leading by example with an incredible spirit and an incredible belief. and they won the first five matches. and the united states could not respond. tiger woods had a very poor week here and, indeed, the whole american team were left dumb struck on the final day after combining so well on the first two days and displaying wonderful team spirit. but it did not fire at all on the last day. >> i didn't know golfers could get that excited. talk about amazing. let's talk about rory mcilroy, he won a big match, but he almost missed his tee time, which is, of course, kind of embarrassing. >>

also president obama has been hammering away at romney's tax plan arguing it will add to the deficit. romney has called for cutting all tax rates by 20%. he also wants to eliminate taxes on capital gains and dividends for families who make less than $200,000. there was an independent analysis done by the nonpartisan tax policy center and it did find that romney's plan would drop tax revenues by $5 trillion. but romney has promised he won't add to the deficit because he'll pay for any tax cuts by limiting deductions for taxpayers especially the wealthy. so this isn't really a major break from what he said before. he's just kind of shifting the emphasis, playing up a different part of his plan. >> so deductions. what deductions would mr. romney limit? >> now, that is the $5 trillion question. we tonigdon't know. he has hinted he may scale back the mortgage deduction for wealthy homeowners. think about how many tax deductions are out there. charitable giving, he state and local taxes. it won't be politically easy to scrap any of them because they're popular. so that's why budget cruncher
